ITALY INVITES 0. 8.
TRADE EXPLOITATION
premier Nitti Holds Two Coun
i tries' Interests in Common.
BLIGHT OF CONFLICT FELT
Italian Debt of $16,000,000,000
Represented as Nation's Great
Sacrifice of War.
ROME, Aug. 8. (By the Associated
Tress.) Francisco Nitti. the Italian
premier, in an interview today, dealt
at length witn Italy's efforts in the
war and her ambitions for the future.
Particular stress was laid by the
premier on Italy's desire for closer
economic relations with the United
States. He declared that Italy was ripe
lor exploitation by American business.
"I find no difficulty in speaking
plainly," said Signor Nitti, to the cor
respondent. "Having been in America!
and eeen the work that America has
done In all branches of human en
deavor, I know something of the great
Institutions that she has built up, in
dustrially, socially and politically. It
is, therefore, with a feeling cf great
pleasure that I communicate ty Amer
icans this message as the head of the
Italian government.
Interest Held in Common.
There is no conflict of interest be
tween us, "We are today two democra
cies striving for still further realiza
tion of the benefits of free govern-
ments."
Continuing, the premier said:
"It was in the aim to perpetuate free
institutions that Italy threw in her
all. No country suffered more from
the conflict or bore thesacrifice with
greater will. Half a million dead tes
tify in silence more strikingly than any
other evidence of Italy's sterling spirit.
A million disabled, living in pain, con
stitute another of our offerings in the
cause of freedom. Five and a quarter
million men went out to battle out of a
35,000,000 population in 1915. Every
available man in Italy was called to the
colors. Had America been called upon
to contribute this proportion she would
have summoned 16,000,000 men to arms.
Italy's army was given willingly,
eagerly, on the altar of liberty to bear
witness that right is more precious
han peace.
Italy Debt $16,000,000,000.
"Before the war our annual national
debt amounted to $3,000,000,000; our
advent into the war h,as seen it rise to
$16,000,000,000. In comparison with
other countries war debts .it might
not seem stupendous, but when keep
ing in mind Italy's resources, it repre
sents the greatest sacrifice of them all.
Italy's national wealth aggregated but
J JO, 000,000,000. Italy entered the war,
accepting all its sorrows and all its
dangers. Several times she was on the
P int of falling. Italy, contrary to the
spirit of the treaty concluded with the
a Hies, remained a long time alone
against Austria-Hungary."

NIIINS STRIP
HUNGARY -OF-" FOOD
Invading Troops Laughingly
Incite Attacks on Jews.
HOMES IN CITY ARE LOOTED
Roumanians Assume Control of Ad
ministration Evidently With In
tent of Remaining. '
BUDAPEST. Augr. 10. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) The Roumanians have
swept the country bare of provisions
for miles around Budapest. The Amer
lean food mission at Vienna, in re
sponse to urgent appeals, has under
taken to feed the school children of
Budapest.
Anti-Jewish feeling is of the strong
est in Budapest. Many Jews have been
beaten in the streets, after having been
dragged from cabs and tram cars, the
Roumanian troops looking on laugh
ingly and inciting the Hungarians to
further attacks on the Jews.
In a recent interview Premier Fried
rich said:
Arch da ice Confer With Allies.
"The removal of the Peidll cabinet
was essential, because it was really a
bolshevist body. Archduke Joseph came
to Budapest at 10 o'clock Thursday
morning, escorted by Hungarian of
ficers, and conferred with the British
General Gordon, the American Colonel
Ley and the Italian Colonel Romanelli,
and then forr.'.ed a cabinet consisting
entirely of bureaucrats.
"The archduke again conferred this
morning with the heads of allied mis
sions, reaching a satisfactory agree
ment. The Roumanians did not parti
cipate in the conference.
Archduke Joseph's movement origi
nated chiefly in the aristocratic and
official circles without reference to or
ganized labor or the peasantry. It evi
dently is of a strongly royalist char
acter.
The Roumanians are assuming con
trol of the administration and appar
ently intend remaining. The press
censorship is most severe and a ma
jority of the papers have suspended.
The Roumanians suppressed announce
ments from Paris that four entente
generals were coming to Budapest.
Roumanian soldiers are said to be
robbing houses and persons and to be
permitting excesses In the provinces.
They have arrested several hundred
residents of Budapest, mostly Jews, j
who are suspected of bolshevik con-
nections. 1
Czeonay, leader of the bolshevik 1
under the late Tibor Szamuely, has been
captured by the Roumanians.
PARIS, Aug. 10. The Vienna corre
spondent of the Temps remarks on the
singularity of Archduke Joseph, "the
most Maygar of the Hapsburgs," en
trusting the premiership and the min
istry of nationalities to the Germans,
Stephan Fnedrich and Professor- Jacob
Bleyer, ascribing this to the Influence
of the archduke's wife, who is a Ba
varian princess.
Friedrich, the correspondent points
out, was one of the closest friends of
Count Michael Karolyt. formerly pro
visional president of Hungary, whom
he accompanied on his visit to the
United States In 1914. Bleyer, the cor
respondent says, is a great admirer of
the Germans;
COPEXHAGEX. Aug. 10. (By the
Associated Press.) Two hundred stu
dents armed with dog whips Friday
stormed the town hall in Budapest and
thrashed the communist officials still
there, says a dispatch from Budapest
by way of Berlin.
The students afterward attacked
Jews.
There is much uneasiness at Prague,
where the socialist organ. Pravolldu.
declares that no communist govern
ment could be so dangerous to the
Czech state as Archduke Joseph's rule.
PARIS. Aug. It). An official com
munication received here from Buchar
est says Roumanian troops entered
Temesvar. in Banat. southern Hungary,
last Sunday. The communication says
the reception of the Roumanians by the
population of the town was indescrib
able. VIEXNA. Aug. 9. (By the Associat
ed Press.) A demand by the Hun
garian government for the extradition
of Bela Kun and ether soviet officials
who left Hungary and obtained asylum
in Austria, is anticipated here.

Nobody can Bpeak with more inti

played by the former kaiser both In
triumph and adversity and on the
relations between the German civil
and military power in timea of

culties. This excess Is expected to be
absorbed, however, when normal condi
tions again prevail in those i dustries.
Office help and men for executive po
sitions are plentiful, with no great de
mand for their services. This condi
tion has prevailed practically since
early spring.
Several new berry and bean-picking
camps are being recruited by the wom

will be taken for a camp at Newberg
on the W. Oldenberg farm, where ten
families are also to be accommodated.

entirely of families. Three cents a
